The meaning of our life today

The question was asked in a very matter of fact way…so, what is the meaning of life.  As we thought about it the question was adjusted…what is the meaning of your life. The meaning of one life…one day…your life today. Maybe, just maybe  we can say that the meaning of our life today is how […]

Dreams know no expiration date

We are heading to Miami soon for book signing events. It got me thinking. There is no expiration date on dreams. The responses to Hour of the Wolf has been so appreciated. Consider the do-over.

Life on a motorcycle

The snow covered the mountain ranges. It was the end of May, but the snow still glistened in the afternoon sun. The motorcycles rode from Boulder to Lyons to Raymond to Nederland to home.

The mountain and the valley in a life

We reached the top of the ridge on the way from Niwot to Crested Butte. At that moment the valley opened before us. A valley of snow. A valley of horses. A valley of nature. Then the drive back up the mountain. Both the mountain and the valley have their own beauty. It got me […]

The trapeze bar

We finished the 21-15-9 workout. Naturally, that was after the warmup and the strength set and before the post 100 sit ups.  As we headed out of the Crossfit box I saw the smiles on the athletes faces and the upbeat chatter. The music was still pounding in the background. What are you doing with […]
